Abstract
According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, techniques for determining a timeout value for a mobile device are disclosed. The techniques include receiving a request for a timeout value from a mobile device. The request includes a current network provider identifier and a first current connection type identifier. The techniques further include accessing an analytics database that stores a plurality of realized latency values, each realized latency value corresponding to a different previously performed network operation. Each realized latency value has a network provider identifier indicating a network provider and a connection type identifier indicating a type of associated therewith. The techniques further include retrieving one or more of the plurality of realized latency values from the analytics database based on the current network provider identifier and the first connection type identifier. The techniques also include determining the timeout value based on the retrieved realized latency.
